Just as your health care needs can change from year to year, so can Medicare plans. Medicare Open Enrollment is your opportunity to find the coverage that works best for you.
Take a few minutes to visit Medicare.gov/plan-compare (and log in for a more personalized shopping experience).
Here are 3 reasons why you should compare coverage options now:
- Your needs may change. You may find you’re going to the doctor more or less often, the prescription drugs you take may be different, or your health needs may have changed.
- Plans can change from year-to-year. Review how your current plan’s costs and benefits will change in 2026, and compare against other available plans by logging in at Medicare.gov/plan-compare.
- New, more affordable Medicare coverage may be available, or you may find plans with additional benefits that can help improve your daily life — like vision, dental, and hearing coverage, or fitness benefits.
After comparing your choices, if you’re happy with your current Medicare coverage and it’s still being offered next year, you’re all set. If you decide to make a change, make sure you do so before Open Enrollment ends on December 7!
